I have lobsters taped to my wrists.

[And now you can hear them, snapping about, clicking...making other lobster sounds. And Vergil is just silent as the grave for the longest time. And when he talks again, it's two parts baffled, two parts concerned, one part unamused and one part disturbed]

Why do I have lobsters taped to my wrists?

[SNAP! Yup, one got his nose. And despite fighting demons, regularly getting thrashed, regenerating from beatings and all other kinds of things, it hurts like a bitch. So there's quiet. And then a breath being sucked in slowly. And then=]

AAARH! GET OFF!

[Tug tug TUUUUUUUG stumble trip crash SNAP]

DAMN YOU, don't you start!

[Scrambling up, pulling, stumbling forward again, and the book gets knocked to the floor and shut in the process]

[ooc: Loss start]

[payback]

... to be crabby.

[azuredemonic]

You realize that this is war, correct? You and your trout...trite little comments...

[GROWLING SIGH]

[payback]

[VIRGIL SHE JUST LAUGHED SO HARD AT THAT how embarrassing.]

Oh come on! I know you're floundering, but you've probably sea...n worse, right? Maybe you can tape their claws!

[azuredemonic]

Oh yes, tape them with my third arm that has been thankfully rook...looked over when I was so coy...toyed with!

[okay, something just got kicked across the room]

Enough with these damnable puns! They're catching on and I am infuriated enough as it is!

[payback]

You know your fish, huh? Maybe the castle was right in putting you on this loss.

Need a hand?

[azuredemonic]

No!

[...growl]

Yes.

Bring pots. And boiling water. I want to hear these damnable creatures scream.

[payback]

I'll bring tape. For one, it's not the fault of the lobsters that they're stuck to you. For two, I doubt the castle will let you get out of it that easily.

[azuredemonic]

For one, perhaps, yet that does not exclude them fr-if you so much as think of pinching that, I will destroy you!-om attacking anything and everything in range of their claws.

And for two, that does not mean I can not try.

1/3

[payback]

You'll probably just make them mad. And then...

[payback]

[...!]

[payback]

Then you'll really be... in a pinch.

[Giggles... at her own bad pun.]

[azuredemonic]

...On second thought, stay as far away from me as you are possibly able. I think I prefer this menace to your own.

[payback]

Good luck... [A pause. Ah, what's his name again?

She did talk to him a little, way back. Enough to know his name............

:|a ...

...

..

Oh, right.]

Good luck, Vergil!

[azuredemonic]

...You too? [Said. So. Wearily.]

[payback]

Only a very little, not to worry.

[azuredemonic]

Worry is not the right word for it.

[payback]

Ehehe... I'll leave you to it, shall I?

[azuredemonic]

If you would be so kind.
